Operation The RT4731 is a highly integrated Boost, two LDOs

(one channel for AVDD and the other channel for VOP)

and inverting charge pump to generate positive and

negative output voltage. It can support input voltage

range from 2.9V to 4.8V and the output current up to

30mA. The VOP positive output voltage is set at a

typical value of 4.6V. The VON negative output voltage

is set at a typical value of 2.4V and can be

programmed through single wire protocol (SWIRE pin).

The available voltage range is from 0.6V to 2.4V with

100mV per step. The AVDD positive output voltage is

set at a typical value of 2.8V. The RT4731 provides

Over- Temperature Protection (OTP) and Short Circuit

Protection (SCP) mechanisms to prevent the device

from damage with abnormal operations. When the

SWIRE and AVDD_EN voltages are logic low, the IC will

be shut down with low input supply current less than

1A.

output current up to 30mA. The VOP positive output

voltage is generated from the LDO supplied from a

synchronous Boost converter, and VOP is set at a typical

value of 4.6V. The Boost converter output also drives

an inverting charge pump controller to generate VON

negative output voltage which is set at a typical value of

2.4V. The negative output voltage can be programmed

through the dedicated pin which implements single wire

protocol and the available voltage range is from 0.6V

to 2.4V with 100mV per step. The AVDD positive

voltage is generated from a LDO supplied from VIN. It

is set at a typical value of 2.8V.

Input Capacitor Selection

Input ceramic capacitor with 4.7F capacitance is

suggested for applications. For better voltage filtering,

select ceramic capacitors with low ESR, X5R and X7R

types are suitable because of their wider voltage and

temperature ranges.

Boost Inductor Selection

The inductance depends on the maximum input current.

As a general rule, the inductor ripple current range is

20% to 40% of the maximum input current. If 40% is

selected as an example, the inductor ripple current can

be calculated according to the following equations :

OUT OUT(MAX)IN(MAX)

IN

L IN(MAX)

V II =

V

I = 0.4 I

where η is the efficiency of the VOP Boost converter,

IIN(MAX) is the maximum input current, and IL is the

inductor ripple current. The input peak current can then

be obtained by adding the maximum input current with

half of the inductor ripple current as shown in the

following equation :

IPEAK = 1.2 x IIN(MAX)

Note that the saturated current of the inductor must be

greater than IPEAK.

The inductance can eventually be determined

according to the following equation :

where fOSC is the switching frequency. For better

system performance, a shielded inductor is preferred to

avoid EMI problems.

Boost Output Capacitor Selection

The output ripple voltage is an important index for

estimating IC performance. This portion consists of two

parts. One is the product of ripple current with the ESR

of the output capacitor, while the other part is formed by

the charging and discharging process of the output

capacitor. As shown in Figure 1, VOUT1 can be

evaluated based on the ideal energy equalization.

According to the definition of Q, the VOUT1 value can

be calculated as the following equation :

OUT OUT OUT1SOC

where fOSC is the switching frequency and D is the duty

cycle.

Finally, taking ESR into consideration, the overall output

ripple voltage can be determined by the following

equation :

OUTOUT ESR OUT1 ESR

I DV = V + V = V +

f C

where VESR = ICrms x RCESR

The output capacitor, COUT, should be selected

accordingly.

Under Voltage Lockout

To prevent abnormal operation of the IC in low voltage

condition, an under voltage lockout is included which

shuts down VOP, VON operation when input voltage is

lower than the specified threshold voltage.

Soft-Start

The RT4731 employs an internal soft-start feature to

avoid high inrush current during start-up. The soft-start

function is achieved by clamping the output voltage of

the internal error amplifier with another voltage source

that is increased slowly from zero to near VIN during the

soft-start period.

Negative Output Voltage Setting

The Negative output voltage can be programmed by a

MCU through the dedicated pin according to Table 2

“VON Output Voltage with SWIRE Pulse”.

Shutdown Delay and Discharge

When the SWIRE signal is logic low for more than

350s. The output VOP/VON can be actively discharged

to GND with discharge function enabled referring to

Table 3 “VOP/VON Shutdown Discharge Selection with

SWIRE Pulse”. The AVDD voltage can be shut down if

AVDD_EN is logic low. In shutdown mode, the input

supply current for the IC is less than 1A.

Over Current Protection

The RT4731 includes a cycle-by-cycle current limit

function which monitors the inductor current during each

ON period. The power switch will be forced off to avoid

large current damage once the current is over the limit

level. The AVDD LDO contains an independent current

limiter which limits the output current to 0.6A (typ.). The

current limiting level is reduced to around 0.3A named

fold-back current limit when the output voltage is further

decreased.

Short Circuit Protection

The RT4731 has an advanced output short-circuit

protection mechanism which prevents the IC from

damage by unexpected applications. When VOP/VON

becomes shorted to ground, and the output voltage is

under the limit level with 1ms (typ.) duration, the bias

function enters shutdown mode and can only re-start

normal operation after triggering the SWIRE pin.

Over Temperature Protection

The RT4731 equips an over temperature protection

circuitry to prevent overheating due to excessive power

dissipation. The OTP will shut down VOP/VON operation

when temperature exceeds 140C (typ.). The AVDD

operation will be shut down when temperature exceeds

140C (typ.), and the output current exceeds 80mA.

Once the ambient temperature cools down by

approximately 15C, IC will automatically resume

normal operation. To maintain continuous operation,

the maximum junction temperature should be prevented

from rising above 125C.

Thermal Considerations

The junction temperature should never exceed the

absolute maximum junction temperature TJ(MAX), listed

under Absolute Maximum Ratings, to avoid permanent

damage to the device. The maximum allowable power

dissipation depends on the thermal resistance of the IC

package, the PCB layout, the rate of surrounding airflow,

and the difference between the junction and ambient

temperatures. The maximum power dissipation can be

calculated using the following formula :

PD(MAX) = (TJ(MAX) TA) / JA

where TJ(MAX) is the maximum junction temperature, TA

is the ambient temperature, and JA is the junction-to-

ambient thermal resistance.

For continuous operation, the maximum operating

junction temperature indicated under Recommended

Operating Conditions is 125C. The junction-to-ambient

thermal resistance, JA, is highly package dependent.

For a UBGA-21B 1.82x3.23 package, the thermal

resistance, JA, is 112.2C/W on a standard JEDEC 51-

7 high effective-thermal-conductivity four-layer test

board. The maximum power dissipation at TA = 25C

can be calculated as below :

PD(MAX) = (125C 25C) / (112.2C/W) = 0.88W for a

UBGA-21B 1.82x3.23 package

The maximum power dissipation depends on the

operating ambient temperature for the fixed TJ(MAX) and

the thermal resistance, JA. The derating curve in Figure

2 allows the designer to see the effect of rising ambient

temperature on the maximum power dissipation.

Figure 2. Derating Curve of Maximum Power

Dissipation

Layout Considerations

For the best performance of the RT4731, the following

PCB layout guidelines should be strictly followed.

For good regulation, place the power components as

close to the IC as possible. The traces should be wide

and short especially for the high current output loop.

The input and output bypass capacitor should be

placed as close to the IC as possible and connected

to the ground plane of the PCB.

The flying capacitor should be placed as close to the

C1P/C1N/C2P/C2N pin as possible to avoid noise

injection.

Minimize the size of the LXP node and keep the

traces wide and short. Care should be taken to avoid

running traces that carry and noise-sensitive signals

near LXP or high-current traces.

Separate power ground (PGND) and analog ground

(GND). Connect the GND and the PGND islands at a

single end. Make sure that there are no other

connections between these separate ground planes.
